I had worked with 2 of the floor officials before, when I buzzed concerning the score I explained what I saw & input up on the scoreboard. The R confirmed what I had said. The R then told both scorebooks what I told him & said to report what I had said concerning the score in order to be corresponding/correct with the scoreboard.

It's always been during C-Squad & JV Games, students doing the scorebook, as long as I've been doing scoreboard/timer & shot clock. When I was Boys' Basketball Manager, as a student, I was the one doing scorebook for both JV & C-Squad. With the addition now of the Boys' games having a 35-second shot clock, that will change things a bit due to the extra table personnel.

Happens with some regularity at lower level games.
Maybe game management should deal with the texting scorekeeper.

The visitor scorebook only had 2 pts. in their book. However in the game 2 2 pt. shots & 1 free throw was made by the home team. I had on the scoreboard that the home team had 5 pts. The home book showed that only 2 2 pt. shots were made, showing only 4 pts.
I am working a wrestling invite before Boys' games on Saturday, I'll ask the AD if I can speak to him off to the side, & exxplain what happened as well as ask/request that adults do the scorebooks during C-Squad & JV games. I do know a person that would like to learn how to do scorebook, I'll ask the AD if she can be used on Saturday. All the Varsity games, an adult does the scorebook.
I'm also going to start using the table setup I saw during last night's Varsity Contest (the scorebooks sitting side-by-side, with the scoreboard next to them, with the shot clock on the other side of scoreboard).
